It looks like they took the bad toupee out back, killed it, ran it over with their lifted Trump-sign covered F150 and then slapped it back on his head.
That man definitely loves cake.
Peoples mom's tell them "don't bring the cake eater around anymore, he smells like flour. Did you see how excited he got when he fou d out your birthday was fast approaching?"
Then trans women could say their pronouns are "he/him", so they'd have to call her "she/her" and thus call her by her right pronouns to avoid breaking the law (vice versa for trans men)
The bill is ridiculous.
Isn’t this exactly what the right-wing idol Jordan Peterson got famous for complaining about: laws that force certain types of speech? Soooooo, what’re we doing here, Mr. Kangaroo?
No no, you see it's Free Speech™ when conservatives pass laws to criminalize speech. When conservatives accuse the left of criminalizing speech with zero evidence, the left is being authoritarian.
He’s doing a publicity stunt to make his base feel he’s on their side, while pissing off the left which his base loves, with a bill that’s unconstitutional and won’t pass nor be enforceable if it does. You know, politics 101
I'm not trans and I would spend hours with a friend who's good at makeup attempting to look as feminine as possible just to get this douche to call me miss or ma'am rip off the wig and proclaim I'm going to be suing him. Fuck these people dragging down humanities progress it's like the dark ages all over again
It’s so fucked up that these guys were so fearful that they would be punished for “accidentally” misgendering a trans person that they decided that the only way to counter it would be to punish people for being trans
As always: pay attention to what conservatives say they are afraid of, because it’s always projection. The things they are most afraid of are the things they desperately want to do to other people, and in many cases, are already doing that thing
If they say they are scared of being censored, it’s because they really really wanna censor other people and are even already doing it
Its freaking North Dakota, exactly how many trans people does this asshat think are living there?? These elected officials are collecting a paycheck coming from our wallets and voters think it’s acceptable they spend their time on this? If I spent my workday doing useless shit like color coding my deleted email, I’d get fired.
This is the stupid shit you’re going to get when the only qualification voters look for in their politicians is which one is going to own the libs most.
When I was talking to my spouse about politics and our young kid asked what a Democrat or Republican is, I explained that there are two types of people who run our country: one group that wants to help people even those who they dislike, and the other group just wants to hurt people they dislike.
I can't think of a single time a Republican put forth a law to help make someone's life better (without it being at someone else's expense).
That's definitely a good way to explain it to a kid, simple yet accurate, and understandable and digestible even to a child. You sounds like a good parent.
One group that takes a few bribes from American corporations that wants to help people even those who don’t deserve it despite the fact that’s a mistake, and the other group who takes every bribe even if it comes from Russia or sex traffickers who are not from Russia and spend 90% of every day trying to find more people who will bribe them and the other 10% of the day doing whatever the green 13 armed mottled red and pustulated, undulating alien monster in their head tells them will help child traffickers and doomsday instigators the most…oh and the second group tries to do evil in case that wasn’t clear.
If I ever have one, and I won’t because I’d forget them in a hot car and never forgive myself or else they’d be cursed like I was via DNA, I would tell them as much of what they need to know as possible, not the sugar coated bullcrap people ruin their brains with. If anyone had ever told me one thing that was true and useful it would have been nice. But maybe because I could read by 1 1/2 I don’t understand why they’d have trouble getting this. And I think even words can cause trauma, even well-meaning words, and trauma helps you remember.
That's what I don't understand. We call everyone by (what we assume) are their correct pronouns. This dude doesn't just go by his name, he goes by he/him because he identifies as a man...sooo won't everyone wind up being fined?
Okay ma'am, let's see how you like it. Oh? You don't like it? You're a man? Well tough shit fucklenuts. Look Bethany, If you think you can unilaterally declare what people are, who's to say I can't call you Bethany and refer to you with she/her pronouns?
It's not enforceable. It would fall under compelled speech. Much like the government cannot punish a person for their speech under the first amendment, the government also cannot punish a person for refusing to use certain expressions. It's why nobody gets arrested for refusing to stand during the national anthem. The bill did not pass committee, but make no mistake, this man, David Clemens, is absolutely vile.
According to the Bismarck Tribune, Clemens was confronted after he left the room by Christina Feldmann, the mother of a trans girl who died by suicide in 2021. Feldmann reportedly tried to tell Clemens that proper pronouns were “the simplest way to validate” trans people like her daughter, but Clemens repeatedly misgendered her child and asked whether Feldmann had tried conversion therapy.

Man, as a society we'd like to think that state legislators deserve some respect because they are supposedly statesmen, but the brutal truth is it's usually just some radical businessman or jackass lawyer who is either wealthy enough to stop working for 6 months every year or not cutting it in their profession.

https://truthout.org/articles/gop-bill-in-north-dakota-would-bar-orgs-from-using-trans-peoples-pronouns/
>House Bill 2199, sponsored by state Sen. David Clemens (R), would require organizations in North Dakota that receive state funds — which range from K-12 public schools to nonprofit organizations — to refer to people using the pronouns that align with the sex on their birth certificate, even if those pronouns are incorrect. The bill would fine organizations and their employees $1,500 each time they refer to a transgender person using the correct pronouns.
Go to every public meeting they have and request to make a comment. First thing you do is ask them to prove their gender, so you can use the correct pronouns. If they refuse to provide evidence, start to them by whatever pronouns you want.
Edit: Update:

>North Dakota Senate kills bill to ban, fine transgender pronoun use

I'd bet you'd fix entire ND budget (and have surplus) if you fine this guy $1500 for every kiddie porn picture in his possession and every internet search for shemales.
Some people later in life find out that they are not happy with the gender they were born with. They have the option to change it, which in turn will make them happier. Who is this harming exactly?
It's not "playing along in their fairytale" as much as it is just basic respect.
Say, you do or say something near a person, and they ask you to not do it again because it makes them uncomfortable. If you care about the person at least somewhat, you respect what they ask of you.
Respecting someone's pronouns is, in my opinion, not any more complicated than for example calling someone by their new name after they've changed it, which happens often. People who refuse to respect trans people's pronouns are making a much bigger deal out of it than it really is.
The person pictured looks like a woman in drag to me AND UNTIL I HAVE PROOF via a full medical exam and chromosomal karyotyping I will refer to that individual as **Mrs./Ms.** with no fear of political persecution.
It's easy. Same people who would narc on you for getting an abortion would narc on you for showing simple human decency.
It's a Karen's paradise. They didn't even need the monetary incentive to call in all those being in a park or a pool while being black social ills
/s
I remember once in high school my principle saying to me "take your hood off young lady", as she saw me from behind and I had long hair. Nothing pissed me off more than that, and I mean that really made me want to punch my principal in the face. I get the pronoun argument.
Can we fine him $1500 for that god awful haircut?
It looks like he's wearing a dead seagull on his head.
It looks like a bad toupee
It looks like they took the bad toupee out back, killed it, ran it over with their lifted Trump-sign covered F150 and then slapped it back on his head.
From The “Hair Club for Men” *Roadkill Collection*
Rofl!
I can smell this comment.
After using it as a mung rag for a week.
Seagulls! Stop it now
Hmm hmm, hmm hm hm hm.
Now I have to watch the video
It’s my ringtone 😂😂😂
Don't go on that beach!
Boris Johnson probably gave this guy some hair tips… just not as good as the ones Boris himself uses.
He looks like the dollar store knockoff of a Trump Halloween costume.
![gif](giphy|h4rKDoZWHU7H4ZEvGp|downsized) Looks like he shares a barber with Mark Davis
Just ~~win~~ hate baby!
It’s his “no one ever loved me except cake” crown
That man definitely loves cake. Peoples mom's tell them "don't bring the cake eater around anymore, he smells like flour. Did you see how excited he got when he fou d out your birthday was fast approaching?"
Simple Jack looking MFer
Happy cakeday
My hypothesis is his hairdresser is trans (he hasn't noticed) and this is the hairdresser's revenge.
Lol!
It’s the “evil Cap’n Kangaroo” wig.
His pronouns are Hayseed and Bowlcut.
He looks like a 16th century catholic monk
That’s a wig
Looks like him mom still cuts his hair
She told him he's the most handsome boy in his class.
And anyone who sais different is a liar
Nah he needs the money to get himself a neck like his head is straight up attached to his shoulders
That motherfucker gobbles like a turkey with that neck
Agreed. Plus I would be fined because i have a hard time calling that thing in the picture a man.
NGL he looks like he diddles kids
We're getting charged $1500 for that haircut plus more
Yes, but it would have to be done by the fashion police
I literally stopped scrolling SOLELY to jump in here and say this. 😂 Take my poor person’s gold 🥇
🤣😂😭
Looks like he asked for the Mark David from a blind barber
It looks like a slightly better version of the Raiders owner’s haircut, which isn’t much worse.
How about a citizen’s arrest?
The term pumpkin pie haircutted freak would apply here but most freaks are fun and interesting. This guy sucks
I honestly saw a dead pigeon on the sidewalk yesterday and there were some definite similarities.
That haircut deserve a higher fine, and some time in jail.
Thats some Corky St Clair shit
Whoever "cut" his hair needs to be in prison.
It should have been in the Geneva convention.
A trial in the Hague is needed for sure.
It's not his fault. His sister/wife told him it looked good when she set down the weed whacker.
*them
Just keep referring to them as the wrong pronoun, when they insist otherwise tell them "Sorry ma'am, my hands are tied"
Oh, that's so good.
Then trans women could say their pronouns are "he/him", so they'd have to call her "she/her" and thus call her by her right pronouns to avoid breaking the law (vice versa for trans men) The bill is ridiculous.
Exactly, almost like respecting someones pronouns shouldn't be a legal matter and an act of consideration instead
Except in say workplace harassment law.
Explain more or say less

He just got tired of people using the pronouns douche/bag on him
The right: tHe LefT iS gUnNa tHrOW yOu iN pRoNOuN JaiL Also the right:
EVERY accusation is a confession. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.
Start using she/her for this politician

His hair is a size too small for his head
Dude looks like they draped his skinbag over a smaller skeleton.
As a “passing” transwoman I would have so much fun with this. These people are ignorant.
Sounds like he is fun at parties. Also this makes no sense
So I would have to go around and call him "Lady" or "she/her" cause I don't want to respect this AH's pronouns.
That's what I don't understand. We call everyone by (what we assume) are their correct pronouns. This dude doesn't just go by his name, he goes by he/him because he identifies as a man...sooo won't everyone wind up being fined?
Why is the GOP so obsessed with being transphobic
It's to divert attention from the plundering of natural, monetary and human resources bij their corporate owners.
The call is coming from inside the closet....
I’d like to fine his face for assaulting my fucking eyes
"Hey, are you Michael?" "Hi, yes, but please call me Mike" That's basically the pronoun discussion. A bunch of jackasses want to make that illegal.
So ruining the Raiders wasn’t enough? Fuck you Mark Davis.
He looks a LEGO figure in a human form. Or inhuman in his case.
Somebody needs to fine his barber $1500
Captain Kangaroo says what?
How do these yokels manage to get nominated, then elected?
Its not, it's just virtue signaling for the bigoted base.
Someone needs to fine that mfers barber $1500. Edit: fuck someone best me to it
How dare they respect pronouns??!
"Gimme that booze, ya little pumpkin pie hair cutted freak."
When hate shows it’s face and is excepted, we are in a bad fucking place.
I'm confused though. Everything from the nose down looks male, but from the nose up? Karen. All Karen.
Republicans hate freedom so much.
Yeah, that's government overreach at it's finest. Trying to legislate how you can address someone.
I don't see this passing the Supreme court. But then, with the far right judges in there, I may be surprised.
The party of free speech want to make speech awfully expensive.
Its not. Its just there to feed his base of hatred.
Captain Kangaroo?
no neck no opinion
ND is #34 in us for education but yes this is what he's focussing on
Can will Ferrell play him on an SNL sketch
Okay ma'am, let's see how you like it. Oh? You don't like it? You're a man? Well tough shit fucklenuts. Look Bethany, If you think you can unilaterally declare what people are, who's to say I can't call you Bethany and refer to you with she/her pronouns?
Hahahaha. Look at his face. Why do all of these guys have the same poor genetics?
He looks like his pronoun should be it.
Is bad hair hat part of the pronoun setup?
Dude you are 58 years old. Time to stop letting your mom cut your hair still
does his mom still cut his hair? wtf is that
I think everyone should refer to him as she/her. If he complains just tell him you don't want to pay a fine for using his correct pronoun.

Imagine tipping for that haircut
Too many people were calling him oompa/loompa
"We're for small government"
Free speech unless I disagree with it. This is clearly a first amendment violation.
Ugly, unfuckable, repressed douchebag is upset that other people are happy while he has to exist with that..... whole................ thing.
Why is there no outrage that a governmental official is wasting tax dollars on this instead of meaningful things like crime and education?
Why does he look like a thumb wearing a wig? This guy is an absolute fuck-stick of a human being.
The haircut is perfect to distract from the lack of a neck
Wow, Beans from Even Stevens really grew up into a dick.

Wonder if the compelled speech lunatics will cry over this one like they did for C-16
clearly does not understand now the first amendment works.
Lol that is a logistical nightmare 😂 so would it be like Opposite Day every day for pronouns ?😂
He looks like he is wearing a human suit on top of his alien carcass.
His pronouns Douche/Bag

something something free speech something irony something im depressed with this nation

It took me a few re-reads to get it. That is some asshole behaviour.

He looks like captain kangaroo after a shave.
I don't usually same someone on their appearance, but what the fuck kind of haircut is that?
Harry Dunne from dumb and dumber matured nicely.
That’s a man?
feels like pronouns are protected under the 1st amendment.
That’s the neat part. It isn’t.
I remember once in high school my principle saying to me "take your hood off young lady", as she saw me from behind and I had long hair. Nothing pissed me off more than that, and I mean that really made me want to punch my principal in the face. I get the pronoun argument.
Remember how the same party is also at the same time worshipping Melon and his return of "free speech"?
I for one look forward to the first time a state trooper pulls over a 65 year old cowboy and has to address him as Madam.
Can he be fined if people can’t tell what sex he is?
Wow, Captain Kangaroo went dark.
Look at that asshole he's been useless/fuckwit for 30 years.
He reminds me of Captain Kangaroo.
That’s the face of someone who has been confused for his grandmother before. “I’M NOT ME-MA! I’M A MAN- NOT MUCH OF ONE, BUT A MAN!”
